BIO. BENJAMIN nronounds

BRo. Benjamin prorounds reason
able question to us about "what good
the Railroad Commissioa has done the
farmers of Oregon" We answer by
saying the o. r. IL. N. Co. has ro7
duced their rates on wheat this year
from that of last year as proposition
of compromise to the Railroad Commits
sioners of Oregon, which overture the
Commissioners did not accept, but still
insists on a 500 rate instead Of a
$500 rate the present tariff, II as
much wheat will he moved from east
ern Oregon to Portland this year as
last, then the farmers on wheat alone
can save Sl57, 900, this year in freight
ON the o. R. Il n. Company, line.
About 10 per cent more wheat will be
raised this year east OF the mountain
than last year, therefore over 1900, 900
in freights will reward the producer
this year Read the letter of Mr.. VIM.
Hoag in The REVIEW this week under
head Of railroad matters, and you will
see wonderful reduction on that line,
and there was less complaint of over
charge against this line than any in
Oregon, except the Coos Bay and Co
guile City railroad. BY carefully
reading the State papers our cotempo-
rary will see all the doings Of the
Board. All the efficient points Of the
railroad laws are complied with by the
railroads at once, and about the doubt
full points they hesitate. Conclusion
a stronger law is needed.

ALBANY, Or. Sept. 2S.-The govern
ment commissioners sent out to inves-
tigate the reported fraudulent obtaining
of lands by the w. V. l. G. NJ, or Leb.
anon wagon road company, were in
the city today en- route to Portland,
having completed tour Of investiga-
ton over the road. The commission,
consisting of Gen. Wharton and Com
missioner McNamee, is accompanied
bv Elisha Barnes and J. G. Lucky, Of
Prineville, who are interested in the
lands in questson. The commissioners
have obtained 1000 pages Of legal cap
paper, full of evidence taken at differ
ent points along the route. They will
meet in this city Friday to take depo-
sitions. Mr.. Barnes, who has accom-
panied the commissioners over the en-
the route, says they have found that
for distance Of $50 miles not trace
ofroad was constructed, yet the com.
pany claim three sections per mile.
He believes it to be the most colossal
land-grabbing fraud ever perpetrated in
The state, and one which if not corrected
will work a great injury to settlers in
Linn and Crook counties. The find
ings of the commission will be awaited
with interest vStat esman.

The Catholic University.

The Pope has approved the plan Of the
new Catholic university which is to be TO-
Gated in Washington. By his instruction
the secretary of the Propaganda waited up
on him with brief fully, heartily aud en-
phatically indorsing the project. In the
matter of location, as in other respects, the
Pope confidently defers to the judgment OF
the bishops, and places the institution d.
rectly and forever under the sole jurisdiction OF
the American hierarchy. In the brief endorsing
the project are used enthusiastic terms, such as
at is the pride of our pontiicate and the glory o!
the Church in America" The next brief will be
signed by the PontiG next week. Bishops Ire
land and Keane are delighted at this manifesto
ton of cordial approval, and will leave Tor
America as soon as the brief is received A
strong belief exists it is said, that Bishop Keane
of Richmond, will be made president of tho uni
versty. Rumor has it that his resignation from
the See of Richmond has been forwarded to the
Vatican, and will soon be accepted At least it is
known the Bishop took such warm leave of friends
and organizations in that city, before he set sail
for Rome to carry, in obedience to the instruc-
tions of tho Third Plenary Council, with Bishop
ireland, the prospectus of the new university to
the Pope, that suspicion was set ahoat that he
would not return there again III his official capa-
city. Over six hundred thousand dollars have
been subscribed so far toward the erection of tho
institution. 1t needs only the appreciation of the
Pope of the plans and the appointment OF presi-
dent for the institution for building operations to
commence in short time.

THE GOVERNOR says if the creditors OF
Virginia will fund their claims against the
State in Riddleberger bonds, Virginia will
act in good faith and will pay her debt"
The bonds the creditors now hold carry
with them, as security, coupons, the mere
tender of which the u S. Supreme Court
has declared shall be legal payment of all
State dues. After Virginia's Republication of
the terms of her two former debt settle
ments, would it be in accordance with sound
common sense for her creditors to surren-
der such security for her bare and unse-
cured promise to pay only portion OF her
debt? II the Governor held secured six
per cent. interest bearing note on rich
man for one hundred dollars, which that
man refused to pay, would he surrender it
for non secured three per cent. one for
sixty three dollars, on the same man? And
yet that is inst what the Governor advises
Virginia'5 creditors TO do, but which, OF
course, if they be like other men, they will
not think of Going.

in the Hastings Court of Richmond, ye-ter
day. MIR. Royal filed special plea con.
tanning summary of the facts upon which
the defence relied as a Justification Of his
course in proceeding against the grand jury,
which was rejected. They then fled plea
to the jurisdiction. A jury was empanelled
and the case was argued upon an agreed
statement Of facts, after which the court
instructed the jury that if they believed irom
all the evidence in the case that the shifts
were brought and the newspaper pubce.
tons were made for the purpose Cf intimidat-
ing and impeding the grand jury of the Feb

against the accused, then they must find he
defendent guilty; and the jury were further
instructed, in arriving at their verdict, that
in law every man is presumed to intend the
natural and probable consequences OF his
own acts. The jury after an absence q
twenty minutes returned with verdict Of
guilty, and assessed Mr.. Royals fine At
$3.50 The defence moved to set aside the
verdict. which motion was overruled.
Mr.. Royal will not pay the fine, but viii
